Before You Start
This section describes some basic information you should know before you start
using your player. It also describes the various types of discs that can be played
with the player.
Opening Screen
This screen is displayed automatically when the power for the player is turned on.
During playback of a disc, it changes to the disc screen.
• Since Audio CD discs do not include screen information, the opening screen is
usually displayed for these types of discs.
Preventing Screen Burnin [Screen Saver]
If a still image is displayed for a long time, a residual shadow of the image can be
burntinto the TV screen. To prevent this from happening, the player has a screen
saver function. If the Initial Settings screen, a paused image, menu or other still image
is displayed for more than five minutes without any operations being performed, the
screen is darkened and a moving image is displayed.
• The moving image is set in [SCREEN SAVER] of Initial Settings 2 in the Initial
Settings screen.
• The screen saver function is cancelled when any of the operation buttons are pressed
and the player returns to the original screen.
See page 28.
